Just wrapped up the first full week of classes! Woohoo. The homework has arrived and I’m finally starting to get into the swing of things, one last time. This is actually the first semester that I’ve played around with swapping classes the first week. I’m sort of a routine-based person, so I usually like to get all my courses squared away day one and have all my books and notebooks ready to go. So far I’ve dropped a credit and a half and added another. Goodbye European Architecture, hello Business Law! It was a pretty clean transaction; I did most of it online and I think I have one form to get signed by a professor. Amazon (sorry Tufts bookstore, competition’s rough) has even made exchanging textbooks a pretty painless process.
Clean Energy Technology & Policy is shaping up to be one of my favorites so far- it’s been really interesting to see what issues & questions come up in a room filled with half engineers and half international policy students. Did I mention the class is co-taught by a lead author of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)? Yes, the one that shared the Nobel Peace Prize with Al Gore in 2007.
Alright, back to the books for now. This semester is certainly going to be a different kind of busy. Lots of big decisions, senior events, and last hurrahs in Boston. Things are about to get pretty exciting. Stay tuned.
